Item Special Note
ARTIST STATEMENT:
I grew up around carpentry, observing and working with my dad and my uncle
working on houses. I love how every piece to a build matters no matter how small
a part or measurement it may be.
It’s like a domino effect, in which one piece affects another. Every part has a role
and function to make the design work efficiently. I graduated with a BFA In interdisciplinary arts at Montserrat College of Art.
I've worked in manufacturing jobs involving custom signage, picture framing, and
furniture design. I then took fabricating methods from each of those jobs to apply
to my own craft. My process consists of woodworking and painting.
I construct shapes in ways that extend beyond known existing geometric shapes.
I find working through my process, a constant experimentation and constant discovery from the various materials and tools I use. It’s a psychological exercise, like solving a strategic game with a specific equation because every shape has its own challenge and rules. The shape’s design is inspired from any thought out of my subconscious. The notion that its “Any shape and the shape of any idea.
